If you don’t have a Bachelor’s and you have multiple years work experience you can get into a legitimate UK distance education Master’s as follows.

Do a MicroMaster’s from EdX in anything, or show some other proof of being able to do the work.

Apply somewhere that will let you take individual Master’s modules as standalone qualifications. I did the Centre for Financial and Management Studies [1]. There are others available through the University of London [2] though you’ll have to search through the linked list to find the Master’s level ones yourself as they only do BOTH not AND. If you want an MBA and have three years managerial experience look here [3]. If you have a lot of software engineering professional experience the Oxford M.Sc. in Software Engineering will accept “extensive experience in place of formal qualifications.“

CeFIMS Master’s cost ~£10K. I really doubt any of the above options cost over £20K.

If you want to get a Bachelor’s fast, for cheap go to Degree Forum[5]. Very US centric. You can definitely get a degree for under $5K.
